About UT Physicians Women's Center - Friendswood
Dr. Ughanze is an OB-GYN with UT Physicians who says menopause management is her specialized focus. She still practices both obstetrics and gynecology, so she sees women from their teens through menopause and after. She also teaches as an assistant professor at McGovern Medical School at UTHealth Houston. She sees patients in person at the group's women's centers in Friendswood and southeast Houston. New patients can request an appointment online or by phone through the UT Physicians system, which bills insurance.
